I know our state has a complaint process for consumers where one can file a veterinary complaint with the state veterinary board to have the actions peer reviewed. Be sure to tell your lawyer that your vet seems to be on all fours with you about this matter as that may be useful to bolster your concerns/case. I'd like to see you get to the bottom of this for Tink. |
I don't know that I am dissatisfied with the surgeon at this point, although I do have some questions. I am more dissappointed that Tink will not get well, that the surgery did not accomplish what it was intended to accomplish. I feel maybe the surgeon could have done more, but I am not sure as I'm hoping he had good reason not to do more at the time. I'm leaning more toward the probability that Tink has more problems going on with her than just a Liver Shunt, and am a bit upset that she is going to require additional surgeries in the future to keep her alive.
